DRILL - I often find when I do Workshops or courses for netball groups, that most coaches and players only want drills. The fact is, you can have the fancy drills, yet still not have good coaching. A drill is a scenario of what could/would happen in a game. It can be simple, slow, complex or fast, yet if it isnt appropriate it is pointless. So Coaches, think about what your players need, role play that through your head and figure out simple basic drills to reinforce that. As experience and skills develop you can add onto the basic drills and create more challenges to the players. There are many books and websites that offer drills of all types. Read them, try them and adjust them to suit your needs. But does a drill make you a good coach? Not necessarily. I hope to one day have a website so we can all share drills and skills. But until then, look, watch and read as much as you can to take in what you need. Yet remember, Quality over Quantity - drills and skills need to be practiced correctly to be of any benefit.
